About the tides at Bradenton

This is a mixed-tide station. Some days bring a deep low and a shallow low, and a few days have only one of each. The pattern follows the reference station at St. Petersburg, Tampa Bay. The mean range is small, about 1.6 ft, so wind and pressure can matter as much as the tide itself. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 2.2 ft. The next spring tides peak on Wednesday, with a range of 2.5 ft. Neap tides follow on October 21, when the range shrinks to 1.5 ft. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 2.9 ft on July 4, and the lowest is −1.0 ft on January 21.

Bradenton is a subordinate station. NOAA predicts its tides by adjusting St. Petersburg, Tampa Bay: highs come about 84 min and lows about 55 min earlier than there. It was established in 1975. The nearest other station is Ellenton, 3 mi away, where high tide comes about 53 min later. For tidal currents, see Rattlesnake Key, 1.1 miles northwest of.

Predictions are based on St. Petersburg, Tampa Bay.
